I called up Sanya Motors in Defence Colony, New Delhi today to enquire about Palio 1.6 petrol and the MJD versions as I'm planning to buy a new car soon and I'm considering the palio. I was told that the dealer is offering absolutely no discount as there is a waiting period of 20-25 days for the diesel version. For the 1.6 petrol, although he was offering Rs15K in discount as of today but he said that there is again a waiting period of 15-20 days and the discount will be based on the date of delivery so you might not get any discount at all!

This is very different from December when I had called the same guy and he was offering me about 35000 in discount for the 1.6 petrol version and the car was readily available.

Personally I haven't seen any palio mjds on the road in south delhi yet but could this mean that fiat is selling more cars or could it be that the dealer is not keeping any cars in stock?
